- Durable, scalable enclosure for battery modules. The SYCFXR9 Battery Cabinet is constructed from heavy-gauge steel with a durable powder-coated finish designed to resist corrosion and wear in server rooms, data centers, and industrial environments. Its front-access design makes routine maintenance efficient, while rear cable entry and integrated cable management channels help keep power and data cabling tidy and organized. The modular interior accommodates various battery configurations, enabling you to expand capacity as demand grows without replacing the cabinet itself. This scalability supports evolving IT loads while preserving a clean, professional rack environment that minimizes airflow disruption and hot spots.
- Optimized for uptime and safety. Reliability sits at the heart of the SYCFXR9. The cabinet is designed to house battery modules in a secure, thermally managed space, reducing thermal stress and extending battery life. Its secure, lockable enclosure provides protection against tampering, accidental damage, and unauthorized access. The design emphasizes safety with clearly marked service areas, accessible removal paths for hot-swappable modules, and integrated venting to support safe battery operation. By maintaining orderly layout and minimizing interference with adjacent equipment, the SYCFXR9 helps IT teams uphold service level agreements and protect critical workloads from power interruptions.
- Installation and maintenance-friendly features. Maintenance and deployment teams will appreciate the SYCFXR9’s user-friendly details. Tool-free rail adjustments, color-coded wiring guides, and clearly labeled compartments simplify both initial installation and ongoing upgrades. The cabinet supports straightforward battery replacement workflows, enabling technicians to service modules without extensive disassembly. Front-access doors, removable panels, and integrated labeling help technicians locate, identify, and service components quickly, reducing mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) and ensuring that uptime remains the primary objective of your power protection strategy.
- Secure mounting and flexible configuration options. Flexibility is a hallmark of the SYCFXR9. The cabinet is designed to fit with APC UPS ecosystems and supports adaptable mounting options to suit different room layouts and rack configurations. Its robust rails and mounting points enable secure integration in standard data center racks or standalone layouts, while configurable ventilation and door orientations accommodate varying environmental conditions. This level of configurability ensures that you can tailor the cabinet to your space constraints and operational needs, maintaining optimal airflow and service accessibility without compromising safety or organization.
- Value, reliability, and lifecycle efficiency. Investing in the SYCFXR9 translates to measurable long-term benefits. By delivering organized battery storage, reliable protection, and scalable capacity, the cabinet helps reduce spares inventory and maintenance complexity. This translates into lower total cost of ownership (TCO) over time and more predictable budgeting for power protection. With APC’s heritage of power and reliability, the SYCFXR9 is a strategic addition for organizations that depend on continuous operation, ensuring critical workloads stay online during both routine maintenance and unexpected outages.

how to install APC by Schneider Electric SYCFXR9 Battery Cabinet
- Step 1: Verify compatibility with your APC UPS system and confirm the SYCFXR9 is the correct cabinet for your battery modules and deployment plan. Review the installation manual and safety guidelines before handling any components.
- Step 2: Prepare the installation site. Ensure the cabinet location is clean, dry, and has adequate ventilation, with unobstructed access for maintenance. Power to the rack area should be isolated according to your facility’s electrical safety procedures, and appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn.
- Step 3: Position and secure the cabinet. Place the SYCFXR9 on a solid, level surface or within a compatible rack system. Use the provided mounting hardware to secure the cabinet, ensuring stability and proper weight distribution for safe operation.
- Step 4: Route and connect cabling. From the UPS system, route required power and signaling cables to the cabinet’s designated entry points. Use color-coded wiring guides and adhere to labeling conventions to prevent misconnections. Secure cables with ties and channels to maintain an orderly and serviceable environment, avoiding pinch points and ensuring adequate clearance for airflow.
- Step 5: Install battery modules. Insert the battery modules into the cabinet following the manufacturer’s alignment and locking procedures. Ensure modules are seated fully, connectors are engaged, and any interlocks or safety devices are engaged. Close and secure cabinet doors, verifying that locks function correctly and access is restricted to authorized personnel.
- Step 6: Perform a systems check. Restore power and boot the UPS or associated equipment. Confirm battery status indicators, alarms, and health checks are reporting normally. Run a brief functional test to ensure that the cabinet communicates properly with the UPS system and that battery modules are charging and discharging as expected.
